Although family math night was a little overwhelming in numbers, i still found it to be extremely helpful as well as fun.
Like stated in my last blog, our game was make it, take it. Rachel and I were incredibly surprised to see just how versatile this game could actually be. I don't think that either one of us were really expecting to see how basic and advanced this game could become.
For example, our first takers to play the game were two toddlers! Of course this concerned us a little but we knew that we would just have to give them more support. It was SO cool to see them grasp on to the concept of money and that each coin value is something different. Of course they didn't completely understand but they thought it was cool that one little coin could be worth more than "one" of something.
It was good that we added the different levels of difficulties because we certainly needed them. We a couple students who were only in 1-2 grade that needed our hardest set of equation cards. It was overall a really great experience and i learned a lot about planning activities and games.
